1931 Roadster Door Detail
 

I am rebuilding 2 doors for my 1931 Std. Roadster and have not been able to find detailed enough pictures or drawings to answer the following questions:
1- What is the width (depth) of the "notch" in the outer skin adjacent to the upper and lower hinges? Alternately, what is the width of the metal left on the jamb side of the door where the hinge is attached? Picture would be great along with measurements.
2- At the top rear of the door adjacent to the door pillar, what is the profile of the top "roll" of the door. Does it have a lip on the side facing the interior of the car or does this lip stop before the door pillar? It appears to me that the door would not go past the pillar if the lip went right to the end of the top of the door.
Obviously these doors were worn/damaged to the point where I couldn't obtain these details. from the doors. I don't know of any 30-31 roadsters in my immediate area that I could look at to find out these details. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

I am in the process of finishing the body work on a Fine Point Restoration of a '31 Roadster and can provide you with the information you are looking for.


I do not know how to post pictures now that the system has changed but I can text them to you or better yet, I can send them as an attachment to an email.
